A Trophyless Domestic Season

Khaldoon and Soriano didnt look too happy in the end. hope Mansour will does a hairdryer Teams or zoom call to them.

since the treble we are fucking comfortable and making big mistakes in transfers too. the drop off is fucking bad and it was only two years ago. they want Pep to be the manager even if he wants to leave? well ask him then to play proper style of football and support him with proper transfers. or watch repeat of this season next time too.
 
The only good thing is that the trophies are spread around.
I'm happy that Liverpool didn't make a clean sweep.
rags winning would be a bit of a pisser , mind you
 
Looking at the squad I’m not surprised we finished trophyless. If we’re happy with that then keep them all. If we want to be pushing for the CL then about 10 need culling.
 
There's more of an excuse for the last final as they were pissed. Maybe so with this year than chelsea, with how poor we've been.

We just battered forest, a better team, with an 11 that seemed to work. He changed for Southampton and this and it's all gone to shit. A stupid change for the final just like with Chelsea.

I'm not being spoilt. If you're in a final you're in a fucking final.
 
I really don't care about winning trophies. I do care about being entertained at City games, and I haven't been now for the last couple of seasons.
Tbh this is how I feel, it’s fucking boring football. When I used to play even if we lost as long as I’d enjoyed it, winning wasn’t the main thing. Today was like many over the last two seasons it’s like pulling teeth mostly down to other teams parking the bus but also because we can’t do anything about it. I even agree with Neville it’s anti football.
As to the original question I’ve seen us win everything we don’t have a god given right to win something however winning something next year will make the losing feeling disappear. Let’s face it, it could be worse we could be rags or dippers.
 
Not that arsed today I thought we played well first half had all the possession as soon as they scored they basically shut up shop and carried that into the second half just booting anywhere, they broke up play with lots of fake injuries taking the piss, we have to get our main targets otherwise another season awaits of more dross.
 
Don’t know how old you are but I remember more trophy less years than trophy ones so yeah, it is what it is, move on!
i'm 61, mate.

obviously went into the game wanting us to win.
didn't particularly mind that we lost to a team who have never won it before, good on 'em..

us older posters on here have seen it all.
even if we never win another trophy i'm happy.
being a blue isn't about winning things.

i'd even go so far as to say,
a few trophyless seasons might mean some of the mardarses on here will go away and leave us alone.
 
The fact is 'Pep-ball' or whatever you want to call it has had it's day. Not only does Pep need to rebuild a team for the first time, he needs to invent some new tactics; he's being out-thought time and again this season. I'm not sure he's up to either to be honest and I actually think it's time for a change. Additionally, and not for the first time today, I'll state the possibly unpopular opinion that Haaland is a luxury we can live without. It sounds ridiculous to say so given the goals to his name, but I think our play has seriously deteriorated since his arrival and today's refusal to take the penalty showed a lack of character - cowardice might be a better term - I might also level that charge at KdB also for the same reason...

We were better this year than last season's final. Just lacked the extra bit of breaking Palace down which is partially down to their keeper not being sent off.

This and only this. It isn’t entitled to want to see us do a bit more. 70-75% possession is absolutely useless when it’s boring sideways, counter productive shite.

They shut up shop from kick off.

Not really got a problem with the loss, but, their keeper should have been red carded - that I can't handle.
 
If we get Champions League, have a good summer window, I'm not that bothered about this season?

Think Bournemouth is a more important game than today was but with a good window and UCL football, I can see us being back to being half-decent next season.
 
how do you feel about it?
I’m not arsed. It happens and the vast majority of us aren’t here just for trophies. We’re here because it’s our club and what we like to see is fight and passion. Sadly, these two have evaded us in spades this season and coupled with a complete lack of any plan other than to keep hold of the ball and bore our opponents into submission means we don’t deserve to be anywhere near a trophy.

Wonder if Soriano and Khaldoon sat Pep down and said “WOW this after Southampton, just WOW”

It’s about challenge for me…I don’t think pep has any opposition whatsoever…nobody calling him out for shit tactics or line ups.

Hes a brilliant manager…no doubt…but even the best needs a good foil, someone to help them course correct when they get it wrong.
